Above and below is the card, the ASUS GeForce GTX 780 Ti DirectCU II OC edition, the card is a 3GB model. The card uses the latest revision cooler. DirectCU II is a cooler that really gives overall good temperatures as it can eat away and dissipate 450W of heat whilst remaining silent. As a result under full load this card manages to around 70 degrees C in our testing. The card is 11 Inches in length which is like 28~29 cm for those in that like and reside in the Metric system. The DirectCU II solution of the card is a dual slot cooler equipped with what ASUS calls cooltech fan technology, basically it helps to push an increased volume of air to the internal heatsink chamber with direct contact surfaces dissipating heat with the help of heatpipes. DirectCU II has two cooling fans, four nickel-plated heat pipes with at least two 10 mm pipes, and a PCB strengthening bracket as well that functions as backplate.

With the GeForce GTX 780 Ti you will receive four display connectors, you'll spot a full size Display port connector, one full size HDMI connector and two DVI connectors (dual-link). You can combine these connectors to setup a surround view (multi-monitor) setup. One card will give you more than sufficient performance to play your games on three monitors.

ASUS offers this OC edition with 3GB memory factory clocked for you and we noticed the Boost clock passing 1100 MHz. And as our article will show later on, there's room for tweaking as we got this puppy running stable at roughly 1200 MHz on the boost frequency, which is very nice.

Each GeForce GTX 780 Ti will have a maximum power design of 250 Watts, but they are made to a little tweaking as well. The reference cards are using an one 150W 8-pin PEG, and one 75W 6-pin PEG (PCI EXpress Graphics) connector.

The card is delivered in all black, you can decide yourself to apply yellow/gold or red stickers. Or leave the card all black of course.
